  • A similar phenomenon is occurring today in places such as Iran and Syria, where government officials seeking unvarnished news of the world beyond their borders use so-called proxy servers and circumvention technology to access their own Facebook or e-mail accounts -- platforms their governments regularly block.

      Shared power. It's odd that the core problem of connection through technology may be shared power. Must our core thesis be (then) how to participate in an environment of shared power or of decentralization of information or of disaggregation of opportunity to participate? Hmmmm.

    "Access to knowledge, for the first time in history, is largely unimpeded for the middle class. Without effort or expense, it's possible to become informed if you choose. For less than your cable TV bill, you can buy and read an important book every week. Share the buying with six friends and it costs far less than coffee. Or you can watch TV"
